The Cocktail Diaries: A Spirited Journey - With Recipes

The Cocktail Diaries includes chapters on Sam's Top 10 all-time favorites, "Simple and Timeless" recipes for those easy crowd-pleasers, "Complex and Conversational" for something a bit more sophisticated, and a final section, "Made by Friends", featuring imaginative recipes created by international bartenders for Sam and his brand Sassenach Spirits--a tailormade tour of the world's best cocktails.

Sam's expertise and enthusiasm shine through, as he regales tales of tasting cocktails--from the historic Boulevardier in Paris and a Frisco on the Las Vegas Strip to a Papaya Margarita in the back of a van in the Oaxaca mountains--and delights in sharing his favorite adventures (and drinks!) with the reader.
